[A "Positive-Sum" Financial Economic Zone] ~ A "Positive-Sum" Financial Economic Zone Where Web2 Real Demand Circulates ~
[Real-Yield Driven] The DEP Protocol ecosystem is a "Real-Yield Driven" economic zone, distinct from traditional Web3 models that rely on subsidies.
[Value Circulation System] We have built a powerful value circulation system where "Fiat Currency" brought in by service providers (Web2 companies) for business activities serves as the energy source, and these funds flow back to the DeFi protocols and developers supporting the infrastructure.
[Opportunity for Developers] We provide "certain revenue opportunities" unaffected by speculative market fluctuations to DeFi protocols (DEX, Lending, LST) and DApps developers responsible for the infrastructure of this economic zone.
7.1 "Financial Inevitability" for DeFi & DEX Entry
[Why Deploy on DEP Chain?] The reason major DeFi protocols or emerging DeFi projects should deploy on DEP Chain is the existence of "structural transaction demand" and "high-quality Yield."
[Base-load Volume from B2B Real Demand] "Service Providers," the protagonists of the ecosystem, will mechanically procure (Buy) DEP from the market every month to pay module usage fees, regardless of the market environment (Bull/Bear).
[Business-Driven Volume] For DEXs, this means having "recession-proof big clients." This mandatory buying demand (Business-Driven Volume), occurring regardless of market conditions, boosts DEX fee revenue and provides an extremely stable management foundation.
[Absence of Toxic Flow and Highly Efficient Market Making] Corporate purchase flows are mechanical and lack the toxicity (Toxic Flow) of insider trading. For Market Makers (MM), there is no other ideal market environment where risk management is so easy and spread revenue is so easy to accumulate.
7.2 Entry Opportunities for Liquid Staking (LST)
[Huge Untapped Market] The consensus structure (PoS) of DEP Chain and corporate DEP demand represent a huge untapped market for Liquid Staking Token (LST) protocols.
[Demand for Liquid Staking Rewards] Stable yields as staking rewards exist on DEP Chain. LST protocols can maximize Capital Efficiency within the ecosystem by providing DEP holders with "liquidity operable in lending, etc. (stDEP, etc.) while earning staking rewards."
[LST Usage as "Corporate Finance"] Service providers can engage in advanced financial management—"earning income gains while hedging inventory risk"—by holding DEP as LST rather than letting it sit idle. This corporate demand is a factor that will dramatically increase the TVL (Total Value Locked) of LST protocols.
7.3 Privileged Revenue for Infrastructure Providers (Bridge/MM)
[The "Blood Vessels" of the Economy] Infrastructure providers acting as the "blood vessels" of this economic zone are promised privileged revenue opportunities as conduits for Web2 money.
[Monopoly on "Paymaster" Routes] Service providers pay in stablecoins (USDC/JPYC), but "Swap to DEP" always occurs in the background. DEXs and bridge operators can exclusively funnel huge corporate expense payment flows into their protocols by integrating with the official payment contract (Paymaster).
[Lending Demand as Financial Strategy] Service providers take financial actions such as "borrowing to pay later (post-payment)" or "borrowing to secure while cheap (hedging)" for cost management. This creates sound, large-scale borrowing and lending demand in the lending market based on "corporate cash flow management" rather than "speculative leverage."
7.4 Revenue Models for B2B DApps / Tool Developers
[Market Concentration] For engineers developing wallets, analytics dashboards, and automation tools, DEP Chain is a market where "solvent customers (Service Providers)" are concentrated.
["Web2 Enterprise-Facing" Business Support SaaS] Service providers seek professional tools for managing module usage status, wallet security, and accounting (tax calculation). Developers have a significant business opportunity to earn usage fees and subscription revenue from companies by providing "SaaS-type DApps that make the DEP Protocol easier for companies to use."
7.5 Virtuous Cycle of Ecosystem Expansion (Flywheel)
[Autonomous Expansion] The ecosystem expands autonomously as real demand (Service Providers) and infrastructure (DeFi/DApps) mesh together.
- Real Demand Generation: Service providers place buy orders for DEP as module usage fees to expand their business.
- Deepening Liquidity: Fees and TVL gather at DEXs, LSTs, and MMs processing those orders.
- Accelerated Entry: Proven track record of "profiting from real demand" invites new financial protocols and support tools.
- Improved Convenience: Enhanced financial environment and tools make it easier for more Web2 service providers to enter.
[Advantageous Position] DEP Chain has already started spinning this flywheel based on "Real Demand." Onboarding here now means securing the most advantageous position in the coming "Web2 x Web3" fusion economy.
7.6 Thorough Abstraction of Developer Experience (DX)
[Abstraction Layer] We provide an "Abstraction Layer" that eliminates blockchain complexity so that Web2 engineers and developers not fluent in Solidity can immediately participate in the DEP Chain ecosystem.
[Integration in a Few Lines via SDK & API] We provide SDKs for Unity/Unreal Engine and RESTful APIs. Developers can implement core functions like "Proof of Human Work" and "Data Verification Requests" into existing applications with just a few lines of code, without writing smart contracts directly.
[Standardization of Account Abstraction] Forcing wallet management and gas payments on end-users (corporate customers) creates business friction. DEP Chain provides standard support for features where service providers pay gas fees on behalf of users (Paymaster) and automatically generate wallets via social login. This allows developers to capture on-chain profitability while maintaining "Web2-equivalent UX."
